A retrospective study of 21 patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) was done. Thirteen had prior resection of bronchiectasis and eight had not. Information about present complaints was obtained by a questionnaire. The prevalence of present respiratory symptoms was the same in both groups. The surgical patients had more severe disease and 85% of them considered the operation beneficial. Selected patients with PCD may have improved conditions with resection of bronchiectasis.
对21例原发性纤毛运动障碍（PCD）患者进行了一项回顾性研究。其中13例曾接受过支气管扩张切除术，8例未接受过。通过问卷调查获取了当前症状的信息。两组患者当前呼吸道症状的患病率相同。接受手术的患者病情更严重，其中85%的患者认为手术有益。部分PCD患者切除支气管扩张后病情可能有所改善。
